Color Run - Colorado Springs

August 11th we did the Color Run. It's advertised as "The Happiest 5k on the Planet" and we sure did have fun! 

Colin and I - Pre-Color Run

This was the first 5k I had ran in (not participated in) since 2008. Since 2008 I had had two kids, a knee injury and moved from exactly at sea level to roughly 8,000 feet above sea level. My friend, J, and I finished in about 35 minutes. I can't tell you how proud of us we are.

L-R: Colin, myself, Kirstin, Cassie, Journey and Loretta

Harper and I



Journey and the kids post Color bomb!

The event ended up having nearly 10,000 people, which is pretty big if you consider that Denver had one a few months before. And had a goal of raising $100,000 to go towards the Waldo Canyon Fire Relief. We had a blast and I wouldn't have traded getting up at 5am for anything!
